Hosting Bharat Summit 2026 is a matter of pride for Telangana, says Bhatti Vikramarka

Hyderabad: Hosting the Bharat Summit 2026 was a matter of pride for the Telangana government, Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka said. Addressing a media conference on the Hyderabad event, he welcomed delegates arriving from across the world.

Bhatti said global politics had increasingly witnessed hatred and divisive tendencies. Against this backdrop, he recalled Rahul Gandhi’s position in support of progressive and liberal politics that upheld freedom of expression. He said such political values offered countries an alternative approach.

The Deputy Chief Minister also referred to Mahatma Gandhi’s principle of non-violence and Jawaharlal Nehru’s ideas of non-alignment and a mixed economy. He described these principles as approaches that could help countries advance through democratic values.

Bharat Summit 2026 to promote democratic and constitutional ideals

Bhatti said the Congress government strongly believed in protecting democracy and constitutional principles. He said these ideals formed the basis for organising the Bharat Summit 2026 as an international platform in Hyderabad.

The Deputy Chief Minister reiterated that the state government had taken up the event on a prestigious scale. He welcomed international representatives to the summit and outlined the ideological principles that the government associated with the gathering.
